“Scarred for life”

I know the pain of
Being alive
I know the struggle
Trying to survive
I know if I hold on
A little longer
What doesn’t do me in
Gonna make me stronger

So many cuts from the sharp edge of the knife
So many battles leaving me scarred for life
But it’s all right
I’m fighting the good fight
Scarred for life

I got a new mark
For every lesson learned
Never got too far
‘Cause all my bridges burned
But time heals all wounds
Skin grows back harder
‘til one day pretty soon
I got a suit of armor

So many cuts from the sharp edge of the knife
So many battles leaving me scarred for life

But it’s all right
I’m fighting the good fight
Scarred for life

They wrote me off like
I was a goner
But I wear their scorn like
A badge of honor

Use it or lose it
Always our choice
Got scars to prove it
Got a reason to rejoice

So many cuts from the sharp edge of the knife
So many battles leaving me scarred for life
But it’s all right
I’m fighting the good fight
Scarred for life
